43189 weaves across from the Swindon line and joins the line from Bristol at Standish Junction on 16 March 2009. It is working the 1G11 07:48 Paddington to Cheltenham First Great Western service. The photo is taken from a public footpath crossing. Although eventually the day turned out to be quite sunny, at this stage the light was still quite weak, with a drab featureless grey sky.
